IB Update 8-20 October

EE First Drafts – Feedback Sessions

Students will begin scheduling EE feedback sessions with supervisors. These sessions will occur when we return from October Break (deadline for completion is November 2). Please find information about the feedback session and criteria on the EE website  as well as in Amy’s PowerPoint from 3 October.

Deadlines

If a student misses a deadline for an IA first or final submission or any other major IB assessment, please let Cassie know. It is also suggested that you do the following:

1. Email the student with the parent and Cassie in cc to remind the student of the deadline and establish a follow-up non-negotiable deadline for submission (suggested for one week after the missed deadline)
2. Email Dan Le so that he can keep the students in study hall to complete the task

If a student misses a follow-up deadline, please let Cassie know so that she can schedule a meeting with you, the student, and their parents.

Upcoming Grade 12 Deadlines:

• October 11 – Music Composition #1 Final Submission
• October 29 – Biology IA final Submission
• November 2 – EE feedback sessions to be completed (students should arrange meetings with their supervisors)
• November 6 – RPFF #2 due on MB
